As a fan of a stable program with an elite coach, I couldn't be enjoying this cycle of the coaching carousel that's been thrown into chaos by the specter of an early signing period.

Meanwhile, in Austin, former Ohio State offensive coordinator and current Longhorns coach Tom Herman has quite the predicament on his hands:
